Ice Harbor Brewery

This was my Valentines Day Present. Home Brew Class put on by Ice Harbor Brewery in Kennewick WA.

Discussing the Yeast

Yeast Choice

Taking Turns

Stirring in Hops

Washing the sides to keep the hops in the wort

Cooling Down the Wort

We were brewing on way to small a scale (plus with extract instead of mash) so we didn’t get to use they’re awesome Mash Tun.

We enjoyed their IPA, Runaway Red Ale, Kolsch, and sampled the Lucky German Stout. Our waitress Joe, was amazing and brought us their delicious Po Boy and Prime Rib Dip to enjoy while brewing.

They have a great brewery supply store as well with everything you could ever need!

We’ll go to the bottling class in two weeks and learn how to bottle and then take home our portion of the delicious beer. We’ve been informed that it will take another week and a half after bottling for it to be fully carbonated. Check back as I add updates!
